Saint Valentine's Day

A history in rhyme

from a collection of poems by Bill Jongbloed (to be published shortly) called Faces Of Love

Do you send Valentine Cards
Do you send them each year
Do you know how it startedRead on and you'll hear
For in the fourth century AD
Emperor Claudius decreed
Roman's worship twelve god'sIt was evil indeed
But Valentinus refusedAs Christ only he served
And he was jailed for this crimeAwaiting a fate undeserved
But his jailer could seeThis man was learned and wise
And his daughter was born blindCould Valentinus be her eyes
So young Julia was broughtTo this great man in his cell
Who taught of history and mathAnd of God did he tell
Soon she trusted his teachingsSaw the world through his eyes
As he proved wise and strongAnd he never told lies
Then one day Julia askedDoes God hear what I pray
Valentinus repliedGod hears all that you say
Now young Julia was prayingHard each morning and night
She prayed hard to seeShe prayed for her eyesight
Valentinus then told her
God does what is best
But to receive of God's giftsYou must first pass his test
Do you believe in Lord JesusShe said yes yes I do
Then they knelt and held handsAnd her faith was proved true

For as they prayed in the dungeonThere came a brilliant flash of light
Julia cried ValentinusGod has given me sight
Praise be to GodValentinus proclaimed
Julia wept in his armsPraise be to God she exclaimed
Now on the eve of his execution
To his friend Julia he wrote
Please stay close to GodIs what he wrote in that note
And he signed this last letterFrom your Valentine
So it's in this man's honorThat we give Valentine's
So on the 14th of FebruaryHis life came to end
And Julia grieved fiercelyAs he was truly her friend
So an almond tree she plantedWith blossoms pink near his grave
As both a sign of her friendshipAnd of the friendship he gave
So that now to this day
Almond trees stand a sign
Of love and of friendship
As they have from that time
So on the 14th of FebruaryPlease celebrate Valentine's Day
With both the things that you doAnd the words that you say
But take not this day lightlyAs you give of your love
As your thoughts and your prayersAre heard by God up above
So this was the lessonValentinus lived to teach
May it endure through all agesAnd may all people it reach
